Evansville Police: No suspects for Fairlawn school fire

The probe into a break-in and fire set earlier this week at Fairlawn Elementary School has yielded no suspects so far, Evansville authorities said.

Evansville Police Department officers responded to an alarm at the school, 2021 S. Alvord Blvd., just after 2 a.m. Monday and found a broken door. Inside the building, officers found a small fire that they were able to extinguish. That blaze damaged a small section of carpeting.

Officers suspect that whoever was responsible for the break-in and fire committed other acts of vandalism. A police report on the break-in lists no missing property.

On Tuesday, Police Capt. Andy Chandler said two juveniles were located by officers in the area of the school shortly after the incident, but they were quickly cleared after being questioned by authorities.
